But what is the question?

Similar to the "Ask the person below a question" thread, except, it's kind of the opposite. It features on Mock The Week, so i'm not being entirely original here.

Basically, i put and 'answer', which can be whatever i fancy, and then you say what the question could have been.

So for example:xCobe said:42xCobe said:What's the meaning of life?It doesn't necessarily have to be the actual correct question(if the poster had one in mind), it can be whatever you would like it to be.

So, are we ready to give it a go? I'll start..

3 Carrots.

That's the answer, but what is the question?

He who makes a beast out of himselfgets rid of the pain of being a man.
